Salman Khan writes and sing for Race 3

The actor wields the mic for another track in Race 3.

After debuting as a lyricist with a romantic number for Ramesh Taurani’s upcoming production, the Remo D’souza-directed Race 3, Salman Khan is kicking it up a notch. We have now learnt that in a last-minute addition to the film, the actor has penned another romantic song but this time, he will sing it too. While singer Atif Aslam and Iulia Vantur gave playback for the first song which was recorded in Dubai and Mumbai recently, the new song was recorded a few days ago in the city. It will be shot in the next two weeks.

“After the first song turned out really well and received a thumbs-up from the entire team, Salman decided to contribute another track for the film. It was a last-minute addition and he recorded it at composer Vishal Mishra’s studio. The soundtrack was ready and the team couldn’t say ‘no’ when Salman offered to give playback to the new song,” a source close to the development informed Mirror, adding that after shooting at a Mumbai studio, and on location in Bangkok and Abu Dhabi, the film’s team are now headed to Leh in the coming week to shoot the romantic number along with some other scenes. “It will be a week-long schedule and the unit has grand plans for the outdoor shoot. The song will be choreographed by Remo.”

The Race 3 soundtrack also features two recreated numbers from previous films in the franchise, “Allah Duhai Hai” and “Party On My Mind”. The source added that cast members Jacqueline Fernandez, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol and Daisy Shah will be joining Salman and Remo for the Leh schedule.

The actor had previously lent his voice to songs like “Hangover” in Kick, “Main Hoon Hero Tera” for the Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shettystarrer Hero, and the “Chandi Ki Daal Par” in Hello Brother, among others.
